    ya man...it's horrible. Right now I'm almost at 1/4 tank and I've got 230km on this tank!! I wont make much more than 300 on this tank.

    I've been tracking it on fuelly to bring to the dealer and ask...'What's up?". Keep my RPM at just above 2000, and don't excellerate fast, and shift at low rpm now.

    I haven't used it much at all for the period I've been trying to get an accurate mpg or L/100km. For the last 2 or three tanks, none at all. Man I used to think my 98' manual wasn't all that great with a 59L tanks and getting 550km on it....haha.

    My light usually comes on at about 400 - 425 , about 65 litres fills it , which means I would be getting 523 kms if I ran the 80 litre tank dry .

    Yeah that'll do it. At my old place I was getting 400ish kms per tank it was all city driving. I'm getting 500ish now. I'm hoping when I get new tires it improves. My buddy Jaycee is getting the same range I am with mud tires in the city.

    pretty much sometimes a little more. Half of my commute is on the Pat Bay highway now.

    The odd time I am off the rock and run on the Pat Bay or over the Hat , I have a noticeable increase in mileage . The Hankook MT's aren't all that quiet on the highway though .

    I wouldn't imagine. Pat Bay is way nicer to drive on than the hat. Jaycee is running goodyear m/ts.
    I found short trips were hell on the truck. Took it on a long drive after doing the short distance crap for 8 months. The rumble at idle went away, performance improved. Gotta get the internals cleaned out every now and then.

    I know this is kinda a dumb question, but have you checked your tire pressure?

    Otherwise only thing I can think of is you're getting some low grade gas where ever you're filling up at.
